Across Ranch Story: Friends of Mineral Town

After the three of them had a meal and discussed, they had a general idea of ​​what they would do next, and Huo An was even more eager to try, so he planned to go to Thomas in the afternoon to ask about claiming the shop.

After Lin Xia left Zack's house, she immediately ran to the blacksmith shop. As soon as she entered the door, she found Jennifer was also there!

"Hi~Jennifer, you are here too!" Lin Xia immediately greeted, "Hi, Sabara, Gray~"

"Hello, Lin Xia~" Jennifer replied with a smile, "We have been waiting for you for a long time, and you are finally here~"

"Ah? Is there something special you want to talk to me about?" Didn't Gray come here to get the modified bow and arrow, and by the way, did he want to ask her something?

Seeing Lin Xia's confused look, Gray came over and said, "Lin Xia, go get the bow and arrow from grandpa first, and then come to my workshop. Jennifer and I are undecided about something!"

"Okay!" Lin Xia first went to find Sabala to ask about the bow and arrow.

"The Mithril bow and arrow has been upgraded. Let's try out its power!" Sabala said as he handed the modified bow and arrow to Lin Xia.

"Wow! Saibala, this bow is so cool!" Lin Xia couldn't hide her excitement after receiving the bow, and stared at the bow in front of her that was shining with mysterious silver light. The whole bow showed a beautiful arc, with a faint light blue color unique to mithril, and the quiver was even smaller and more delicate this time, with only 3 arrows in it, but the quiver did not look light, but rather had a certain weight.

Lin Xia took the bow and arrow and followed Saibala to the room in the forge that was used for testing goods. Lin Xia gently held the bow handle with his left hand, feeling the coolness and strength of the mithril. He put the arrow on the bowstring with his right hand, aimed at the target, and held his breath...

"Wait a moment!" Sabala suddenly interrupted Lin Xia, and Lin Xia looked at him in confusion.

Sabala came to the control console in the room, increased the distance of the target from 40 meters to 60 meters, and then waved to Lin Xia to start.

With a light "whoosh" sound, the arrow shot out like lightning, breaking through the wind and flying straight towards the target.

In the blink of an eye, there was a muffled "bang" sound, and the hard target in the distance had been hit, and the mithril arrow was deeply inserted into the center.

Seeing this, the two couldn't help but cheer at the same time: "Great! This upgrade really paid off! The range of the Mithril Arrow has increased again, and the power has also increased a lot!"

"Haha~ Your archery skills have improved a lot!" Saibala said approvingly.

Lin Xia happily stroked the bow, and seeing the two arrows left in the quiver, she asked, "Sebala, there are only three mithril arrows? Isn't that enough?"

"Generally speaking, it is enough. Three mithril arrows can be shot at the same time, with a maximum range of 3 meters. The lethality of each arrow is 60 points, and the total of three arrows can reach 90 points!" Sabara explained.

"But, what if I encounter a powerful one, or my hands shake and I miss, these three arrows will definitely not be enough!" Lin Xia said pitifully. Moreover, she looked at the quiver, which only had three slots and could only hold three arrows. This was definitely not enough!

"Didn't you make 200 golden arrows before? Do you need to upgrade them into mithril ones?" Sabara could only ask.

"It definitely needs to be upgraded, but this quiver can't hold it all, right?"

"You're overthinking it. Even though this quiver looks small, it can hold up to 300 arrows!"

"Then this..." Sabara looked at Lin Xia pointing at the three slots in the quiver and suddenly said, "Ah, this is it, no matter how many arrows are in the quiver, the maximum number of arrows displayed on the surface is only 3. Now there are only 3 arrows in the quiver, so it doesn't refill automatically."

Saibala took the quiver from Lin Xia's hand, pointed to a place and said, "Look, here you can see the actual number of arrows in the quiver. This is where you put the arrows. When the number of arrows in the quiver is less than 2, there will be a reminder so that you can replenish the arrows in time."

"Oh, I see." Lin Xia asked as she studied, "If we can't get a timely replenishment, can we use other arrows instead?"

"Of course you can, but if you use other arrows, the lethality won't be optimal. It will only be the least lethal of the bow and arrow."

Seeing that Lin Xia didn't quite understand, Sabala explained in detail: "For example, the best range of the Mithril Bow is 60 meters, 90*3=270 damage. If you use gold arrows, then you can only reach the gold level range of 40 meters, and the lethality can only reach 60*3=180 points. And if you use the combination of gold bow + Mithril arrows, then you can only achieve the gold level range and lethality. Do you understand?"

"Oh~ I see! Only bows and arrows of the same level can bring out the best effect, right!"

"That's right!"

"Then help me upgrade the golden arrows into Mithril arrows!"

"All of them?" Seeing that Sabara seemed to disagree, Lin Xia immediately asked for the reason.

"Your current bow is only Mithril-level. I think that sooner or later you will get a blessed bow or directly get the Philosopher's Stone to upgrade your bow to Sage-level. At that time, the arrows will definitely need to be upgraded again, so I don't recommend that you upgrade all the arrows now. You can upgrade only some of them and leave the others for later upgrades after your bow is upgraded..."

"Thank you, Sebala, for giving me such good advice!" Lin Xia was very impressed. "Then I will upgrade 50 of them first, and I will upgrade the remaining 136 later depending on the situation!"

"Okay~" Saibala was also very happy that Lin Xia took his advice, but, "Why are there only 136 left? Shouldn't there be 150 left?"

"Hey~" Lin Xia said embarrassedly, "During the hunting trip, some of them were not retrieved and were lost or damaged."

"I thought that the quality of the golden arrows was very good and they would not be damaged. It seems that you shot them to a place beyond human power." Saibala said with understanding, "You should be more careful when shooting arrows next time. Arrows are not cheap!

However, when your arrows are upgraded to Blessing or above, the quiver will have an automatic navigation recovery function. At that time, as long as they are within the recovery range of the quiver, they can be automatically recovered, and this kind of thing will not happen again. Come on~"

After discussing the upgrade of the bow, Lin Xia immediately paid for the ore and money. Seeing that Saibala was about to go back to work, she immediately pulled him aside and said, "Don't worry, Saibala, I have another thing to trouble you with!"

"Oh? What's going on?"

"Look at this bracelet." As he said that, Lin Xia immediately showed Sabala the bracelet and its firing, as well as the silver needles that shot out.

"This is amazing. Although the range is short, it is lightweight and has good lethality." Saibala said as he studied it. "As a self-defense weapon for women, it's very good."

"Well, this is what my friends brought me when they came here. It's for self-defense. However, the silver needles inside are consumables and cannot be recycled. They will lose their effect after being used once. So, I want to ask you, do you have any way to make this kind of silver needles?"

"Let me take a look." Saibala carefully examined the silver needle, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "The craftsmanship of this silver needle is not complicated. I can try to make it. But?"

"But what?"

"This needle doesn't seem to be made of pure silver metal. It also contains other mineral materials. A needle made of pure silver is so small and thin. It is impossible for it to have such a great killing power."

"Really? Then can you detect what kind of mineral it is?" Lin Xia immediately became anxious.

"This is not difficult. I have a special testing instrument here. It can detect the result in half an hour. I will tell you after the result is obtained!"

Lin Xia's eyes lit up: "Really? That's great! I'll collect whatever mineral materials are needed for testing."

After Sabara took a silver needle to the testing room for testing, Lin Xia also hurried to Gray to see what the two of them wanted to see her about.

When I found Gray and Jennifer, they were looking at Gray's design album together. Could it be that Jennifer wanted to ask Gray to make jewelry for her, but she couldn't make up her mind and asked me for reference?

"Gray, Jennifer, I'm here! What do you want from me?"
